States dropdown box are not shown

Last night I bought the hikashop essential package and will install it soon. If the issue persists, I will try and set up an access for you. I will let you know how it goes.

Did you change the default country and the default state in the custom fields address_country and address_state ? Because if that's not the same country as the one you have published, it might create such problem...

Hi, thanks for the reply.

OK, I looked in this section just now, under country, Australia is set in both default value and "preview" country.

When I go into the state field, there are two drop down boxes in the same two positions, but they are empty.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Yes, sure are published...

Hi, ok, saving it allowed the state to appear in the custom state fields, I set those and saved those.

In the front end, when adding a new address, it says australia in the country, but nothing for state at all until I change to New Zealand as a country and switch back to Australia?

Appreciate the help!!

Hi,

Upgrading to the latest version 1.5.1 as of 9/06/11 seems to fix the states drop down box issue which I logged initially. The states box now appears with correct values on all pages where the address form is being used.

Thank you for your help!

Here is the website that Webguy and I have been trying to get up and running.

It appears to be an issue when only one country is published (irrespective of which country). If more than one country is published, the behaviour is initially the same, but disappears (i.e. the states pulldown menu will appear) when the country selected is changed from the default. Reselecting the default country also works from this point on.

Bingo! As you predicted, the rokbox plugin was the culprit. Will have to investigate further what that plugin is and why we use it. Thank you for you help with this issue.

BTW - No sign of briaskISS module in the backend. I see it in the source, but nowhere else. Another mystery for us to solve. Thank once again.

Hello,

I also have the same issue of the state box not showing up. I disabled all the rok components to see if that would work, but it didn't.

Could it have something to do with the custom "suburb" I added?

Thanks

Yep:

Thanks

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

All the states are listed good, even the default is fine too in my site.

What if I have to add up an option "Select State" and make it default. How do we do this?

Thanks

Ok,
Now when we choose a country we get list of states say for eg:
State A
State B
State C
and one of them is default which we can manage from backend. But I want to put it like this
Select State (this as default for every country)
State A
State B
State C

Hope you get a clear picture
